    "IMVU is a virtual Sodom"

    February 21, 2012  |   By HisCandyApple

    Pros

    IMVU has the potential to become a truly awesome, international social networking virtual community. It allows for more individuality and customization than any of its competitors and allows for guests to make free accounts and visit as often as they wish for free.

    Cons

    IMVU allows children 13+ to access and play in their network, alongside adults who are there for illicit sexual content and fetish, even abusive themes such as BDSM slavery and bestiality, referred to as 'yiffing' in the slang.

    Summary

    IMVU needs to SERIOUSLY redesign its community plan and to implement MUCH more strict rules regarding the content they allow, as well as to actively enforce their own stated policies that are frequently and openly violated. IMVU advertises fun games for children but offers them no safety from the many sexual predators that it also harbors and caters too with illicit content.
